The Ways Of the Market.

A great many farmers make the mis-
take of picking their fruit and vcee-
tables too green. often receive Der.
rics and grapes that are half green. l
would not cat them. neither would tho
farmer who sent them. and vet he ex.
poets big price. I claim that fruit
well ripcned. or vegetables properly
maturcd. will bring twenty per cent.
more. and lam satisfied they will stand
up full Us well in shipping Often the
measures are not well filed. They too
stand around with the green stuff until
some cheap customer comes along and
will buy them. As a result this farmer
complains that he does not got as much
MS his ncighbors. while the whole blame
rests on himself. / am often Obliged
to hold tomatoes for two or three DAYS
to riprn. because can not sell them M
they are.--A Ncw YorE Commission

Vegetable Pearls.

1t has been long known that in some
specimens of bamboo a round stone is
found at the joints of the cane. This is
called "tabasheer." and is supposed to
be deposited from the silicious juices of
the cane. Another curiosity of the sort
is the ''cocoanut stone" found in the
endosperm of the cocoanut in Java and
other East Indian islands. 1t is, &C.
cording to Dr.. Kimmins, pure carbon-
ate Of lime. and the shape of the
stone is sometimes round, sometimes
pcar-shaped. while the appearance is
that Of white pearl without much
luster. Some Of the stones are Us large
MS cherries and AS hard as felspar OF
opal. They are very rarely found. and
are regarded rs precious stones BY
Oricntals, and charms against disease
orevil spirits by the natives. Stones
Of the kind are also found in the pome-
granite and other East Indian fruits.
Apatite has also been discovered in the
midst Of teak wood -Eag,nccr,nq.
